Chapter 352: Soul Tribulation

The Five Elements Flags, Thunder and Fire Beads, forty-six Pure Yang Flying Swords and a purple divine halberd were fully activated by the four great guests who were transcending the tribulation. They instantly released tremendous power of transcending the tribulation and came towards Lu Yuan to kill him.

Each magic weapon displays astonishing visions and has earth-shaking power.

The five elements flags unfolded in the wind and turned into five-colored formation flags, instantly forming a mysterious formation, evolving earth, fire, wind and water, with murderous aura in the air, as if to return the world to chaos.

Thunder and fire intertwined inside the Thunder and Fire Pearl, gushing out the Mysterious Thunder Divine Fire. Thunder roared, flames raged, and the void was shattered into pieces.

Forty-six Pure Yang flying swords formed a sword formation. The sword light was like a dragon, strangling everything. Even the air was cut into pieces wherever it passed.

And that purple divine halberd was even more powerful. With one strike, it seemed to have the power to create the world. Wherever the halberd's light went, even the heaven and earth trembled. It was obviously a treasure left behind by an ancient powerful being.

The four magic weapons attacked together with overwhelming power, as if they were going to crush Lu Yuan completely.

However, Lu Yuan looked calm and not panicked at all. He flipped his hand and offered up a seemingly ordinary black stone.

This stone is the impure waste stone left after he extracted pure innate Geng gold from the original innate Geng gold stone.

Although it is just an impurity, this piece of black stone has absorbed the energy of Gengjin and is extremely hard. It is almost as hard as the innate Gengjin itself. Moreover, due to its terrifying weight, it can be said that nothing can break it.

Lu Yuan threw the black stone casually, and the black stone drew an inconspicuous trajectory in the air and went straight to the four magic weapons.

When the four guests who had transcended the tribulation saw this, they did not take the black stone seriously at first, because the stone did not have any aura of a magical weapon, and was as inconspicuous as any black stone that could be seen everywhere on the roadside.

However, the moment their magic weapons came into contact with the black stone, the faces of the four people changed suddenly.

"boom--!"

The moment the black stone collided with the four magic weapons, a deafening noise erupted.

The formation formed by the five elements flags was directly smashed through by the black stone, and the five-colored flags dimmed in an instant; the thunder and fire beads were smashed away by the black stone, and the mysterious thunder fire was scattered and extinguished; the sword formation composed of forty-six pure yang flying swords was broken up by the black stone, the sword light collapsed, and the flying swords flew in all directions; even the astonishingly powerful purple divine halberd was shaken by the black stone, and the halberd light dissipated, and flew back.

The four guests who were transcending the tribulation were stunned and could not believe what they saw before them.

Their magic weapons were all treasures from the Tribulation Period, with immense power. However, in front of this seemingly ordinary black stone, they were as fragile as paper and had no power to resist at all.

"This... what the hell is this thing? Why is it so hard?" A guest from the Alchemist Alliance exclaimed in shock.

"Impossible! How could our magic weapon be smashed away by a piece of broken stone!" Another person's face was full of disbelief.

However, the facts were before their eyes. Not only were their magic weapons smashed away by the black stone, but even the attacks released by the magic weapons were all blocked by the black stone, failing to hurt Lu Yuan at all.

The four guests who were trying to transcend the tribulation were completely dumbfounded. They were shocked and frightened. They had never expected that this unremarkable black stone could have such terrifying power that it could easily destroy their magic weapons.

The Five Elements Flag, the Thunder and Fire Bead, the Pure Yang Flying Sword, the Purple Divine Halberd, these are all top-notch magic weapons bestowed by the Alchemist Alliance. Each of them contains the power of the Tribulation Period. However, in front of the black stone, they are like paper and cannot withstand a single blow.

This power beyond their understanding made them feel fearful and confused, and even gave rise to a sense of powerlessness.

Lu Yuan sneered, his eyes swept across the four people like a knife, and said lightly: "I gave you a chance, but it's a pity that you are useless. In this case, don't blame me for being rude. Now it's my turn to take action."

Before he finished speaking, he controlled the black stone with a thought and directly chased after the magic weapons of the four guests who had transcended the tribulation.

The black stone was like a meteorite, cutting through the sky with unrivaled power, destroying the Five Elements Flags, Thunder and Fire Beads, Pure Yang Flying Sword and Purple Divine Halberd one by one.

The five-colored light of the Five Elements Flag dimmed in an instant, the thunder and fire power of the Thunder and Fire Pearl was forcibly dispersed, the sword formation of the Pure Yang Flying Sword was completely disrupted, and the halberd light of the Purple Divine Halberd was also shattered.

The four magic weapons were shaken away one after another and lost their original power.

The four guests who were trying to transcend the tribulation lost all their magic weapons and were immediately in dire straits.

Their faces were pale and their eyes were full of fear.

Lu Yuan did not hold back any longer. He formed seals with his hands, and the Ancestral Phoenix blood in his body burned violently, activating the Ancestral Phoenix Claw.

In an instant, a gigantic fire phoenix appeared behind him, with its wings spread out, covering the sky and the sun, and its mighty power shook the earth.

The Fire Phoenix let out a long roar, and flames surged to the sky, as if they were going to burn the entire world to ashes.

The Fire Phoenix Dharmakaya grabbed down with one claw, and the flames condensed into a huge sharp claw, and flew straight towards a guest official who was transcending the tribulation.

The guest who was undergoing the tribulation had no time to react before he was caught by the Fire Phoenix Claw.

With a loud bang, his body was instantly devoured by the flames and turned into ashes. Even his soul could not escape and was completely burned by the flames, both his body and soul were destroyed.

In just one round, a guest official who was trying to transcend the tribulation died on the spot.

Seeing this, the remaining three people were terrified and their faces turned pale as paper.

They couldn't understand why Lu Yuan could burst out with such terrifying power when he was clearly going through the double tribulation of thunder and fire?

The suppression of the double tribulation of thunder and fire seemed to have no effect on him, and he could even easily kill the strong ones who were undergoing the tribulation. If he burst out with all his strength, how terrifying would his strength be?
The three men were filled with despair. They were not as strong as Lu Yuan, and their magic weapons were destroyed. They had no chance of winning this battle.

They had originally hoped to delay until Lu Yuan's Soul Tribulation arrived, and use this opportunity to turn defeat into victory. However, now, before the Soul Tribulation arrived, they had already lost one person, and the situation was precarious.

At this moment, the double disaster of thunder and fire on Lu Yuan's body suddenly disappeared, the thunderclouds above his head quickly dissipated, and the disaster fire on his body also gradually converged until it was completely extinguished.

Lu Yuan was stunned, and looked down at his body. He could no longer feel the suppression of the fire catastrophe in his body. He said to himself, "Huh? Why did it suddenly stop splitting and burning? Have I gotten through it?"

He felt relieved. He had thought the three disasters would be extremely difficult, but he had not expected it to be so smooth.

At this time, King Jinjiao reminded: "Master, be careful! After the thunder and fire tribulations disappear, the most difficult calamity will come. The heaven and earth will send down a calamity to kill the soul. This last calamity is the most difficult and dangerous, and is even more terrifying than the thunder and fire tribulations just now. You must be extremely cautious!"

The remaining three guests who were transcending the tribulation were overjoyed when they saw that the double tribulation of thunder and fire on Lu Yuan had faded away.

They knew that the disappearance of the lightning and fire disasters meant that the soul disaster was about to come. The soul disaster was the most terrifying of the three disasters, and the person who survived the disaster had to do his best to protect his soul. If he was not careful, his body and soul would be destroyed.

This is their only chance to fight back.

I must kill Lu Yuan when he is going through the spiritual tribulation and is off guard, otherwise I will be the one who is in trouble today.

"Finally, it's time to delay the soul tribulation!" A guest official who was undergoing the tribulation whispered in relief, with a hint of ruthlessness flashing in his eyes.

The three of them quickly discussed in their minds and decided to attack with all their strength when Lu Yuan was going through the soul tribulation, and kill him while his mind was distracted.

Hope rekindled in their eyes, as if they saw the dawn of a turnaround.

King Jinjiao and the ancestor of the Martial God Sect also stared at the three guests who were transcending the tribulation with serious expressions.

They knew that the soul tribulation was the most difficult and dangerous of the three disasters, and the one who survived the tribulation had to concentrate on protecting the soul, which was at its most vulnerable. They were worried that the other party would take the opportunity to attack, so they were fully alert and ready to protect Lu Yuan at any time. However, Lu Yuan did not take the soul tribulation seriously.

His expression was indifferent, even with a hint of disdain. If his physical body still had some "defects", then his soul was impeccable.

Because his soul is more powerful than his physical body!

Lu Yuan's body was already extremely strong. He had cultivated many holy bodies and had already reached a height that was difficult for ordinary people to reach.

But his soul is more powerful than his body. All this stems from his ultimate pursuit of the soul since the beginning of his cultivation.

Ordinary cultivators usually start to cultivate their souls in the Spirit Transformation Stage, but Lu Yuan had already started to cultivate his soul in advance in the Golden Core Stage and Nascent Soul Stage using the "Furnace Hundred Refinements Soul Cultivation Method".

When he was in the Nascent Soul stage, the strength of his soul was already comparable to that of a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation stage, far surpassing those at the same level.

Later, he exchanged for the "Divine Mind Holy Body" through the system. This is one of the thirty-six innate holy bodies, specially created to strengthen the primordial spirit.

When his innate divine consciousness and holy body reached perfection, the strength of his soul had reached a level that was unimaginable for cultivators of the same level.

Not only that, Lu Yuan also changed to the more advanced "Bitter Bamboo Soul Cultivation Method" to further temper his soul based on the understanding of the bitter bamboo's sadness, making it more resilient and powerful.

When he was in the Spirit Transformation Stage, the strength of his soul was already comparable to that of cultivators in the Void Refinement and Fusion Stages.

Now that he has broken through the Tribulation Stage, even he himself cannot estimate how powerful his soul is.

Yuan Shen Tribulation?
In the eyes of others, this is the most terrifying of the three disasters. But in Lu Yuan's eyes, it is the least threatening.

He looked up at the sky, his heart calm, and even with a hint of anticipation.

"The calamity of the soul? The heaven and earth will send down a magic sword that can kill the soul. Let me see how powerful this magic sword is." Lu Yuan whispered to himself, his eyes as sharp as torches.

Between heaven and earth, an invisible energy began to gather.

Above the sky, invisible energy condensed into a huge invisible sword.

This sword is the divine sword that can kill the souls of those who are undergoing tribulation. The will of heaven and earth will condense a soul sword of corresponding strength according to the strength of the soul of the practitioner.

Generally speaking, the Soul-Slaying Sword of an ordinary Tribulation-crossing cultivator is only three feet long, and a Soul-Slaying Sword over four feet long is a symbol of a top-notch Tribulation-crossing cultivator. And a Soul-Slaying Sword over five feet long is rare in the world and can be called a peerless genius.

From ancient times to the present, the only sword that can wield the most powerful soul-slaying sword is the seven-foot divine sword.

That powerful man later ascended to the fairyland. It is said that because of his extremely strong spirit, he was accepted as a divine general by the Heavenly Court. He also became an overlord in the fairyland and was very famous.

Lu Yuan was curious: "I wonder how long my Sword of the Soul will be?"

Between heaven and earth, Lu Yuan's soul sword began to condense.

One foot, two feet, three feet... In the blink of an eye, the length of the Yuanshen Sword has exceeded the scope of ordinary tribulation-crossing cultivators, but the growth rate has not slowed down at all.

Soon, the length of the Yuanshen Sword broke through four feet, five feet, and went straight to six feet.

When the Yuanshen Sword reached six feet, the three guests who were originally preparing for a sneak attack suddenly froze in place, their faces filled with shock.

"Six feet?"

Lu Yuan's Yuanshen Sword actually grew to six feet in just a few breaths.

You know, when they themselves were going through the tribulation, the Yuanshen sword of the last tribulation was only three and a half feet long, which already made them very satisfied and even proud.

Because the three and a half foot long Yuanshen Sword has surpassed almost 90% of the tribulation-crossing monks.

After all, the length of the Yuanshen Sword directly reflects the strength of the Yuanshen and the potential of the cultivator.

They originally thought that they were already among the best among the tribulation-crossing cultivators, but now seeing Lu Yuan's Yuanshen sword easily break through six feet, they realized that the gap between themselves and Lu Yuan was like an insurmountable chasm.

King Jinjiao and the Martial God Sect's ancestors were also completely stunned. Although they knew that Lu Yuan's strength was unfathomable, they still found it unbelievable to see this scene with their own eyes.

King Jinjiao muttered to himself: "When I just broke through the tribulation, my Yuanshen sword was five feet long. Later, I spent a full 20,000 years cultivating my Yuanshen, and only when I reached the ninth level of the tribulation did my Yuanshen sword grow to nearly six feet.

But Master has just entered the stage of transcending tribulation, and his Yuanshen sword is already six feet long? This... How is this possible?"

The ancestor of the Wushen Sect was also shocked and whispered: "The "Tianwu Hunyi Gong" practiced by our Wushen Sect is of great benefit to the cultivation of the Yuanshen.

But even so, none of the five of us could make the Yuanshen Sword reach six feet. The Master's Yuanshen was so terrifying that it was incomprehensible.

Moreover... this Yuanshen Sword is still growing and has not stopped yet!"

Sure enough, Lu Yuan’s Soul Sword did not stop growing.

Seven feet, eight feet... In just a few breaths, the length of the Yuanshen Sword exceeded ten feet.

Afterwards, the growth rate was measured in "zhang".

One zhang, two zhang, three zhang!
King Jinjiao and the others were completely numb, and the three guests from the Alchemist Alliance who had transcended the tribulation were stunned where they were, and even their breathing seemed to have stopped.

They had originally planned to launch a sneak attack while Lu Yuan was undergoing the Yuanshen tribulation, but now, seeing the three-meter-long Yuanshen sword, they were so frightened that they dared not move, and even the idea of ​​a sneak attack completely disappeared.

"This... what the hell is this soul?" A guest official who was undergoing the tribulation had a trembling voice and fear in his eyes.

"Does it take such a big sword to kill Lu Yuan's soul?" Another person muttered to himself, as if he was asking himself, or as if he was asking the heaven and earth.

The three-meter-long Yuanshen Sword was like an invisible mountain, hanging above everyone's head, pressing them to the point of suffocation.

At this moment, they truly realized how terrifying Lu Yuan’s soul was!
At this moment, they no longer wanted to launch a sneak attack, because they just wanted to know how long the Yuanshen Sword could grow in the end. If they died, they would be witnessing history.

The result came out very quickly. The Yuanshen Sword hanging above Lu Yuan's head finally stopped at 12 zhang, or 40 meters.

The 40-meter-long sword condensed in the air, carrying the power of heaven and earth, to cut off Lu Yuan's soul.

The Golden Horned King cried out in shock and lost his voice.

"12 feet!"

The ancestor of the Wushen Sect: "Is this a human?"
